PlayStation’s Hideaki Nishino has emphasized that the sales of the PS Portal have been a remarkable win for the company. The handheld device is set to keep evolving, as Sony is eager to find more innovative ways to deliver PlayStation games to users. In a conversation with the BBC, Nishino hinted that the recent addition of direct cloud streaming capabilities on the PS Portal is only the beginning.
### PS Portal’s Success Fuels Sony’s Interest in New Handheld Devices
The recent buzz about PlayStation’s ventures has stirred curiosity, prompting the BBC to seek insights from both Nishino and co-CEO Hermen Hulst regarding the prospects of a new PlayStation portable console. While they sidestepped specifics, Nishino did highlight the evolving nature of how people engage with games. It was this evolution that inspired the launch of the PS Portal and contributed to its success.
Nishino elaborated, “We’ve just introduced a beta program that enables Cloud streaming directly to the handheld. We’re constantly on the lookout for new ways players can experience games.”
After a pause in portable gaming, rumor has it that Sony has been experimenting with a new handheld device, with some prototypes potentially already in existence. The triumph of the PS Portal has reportedly driven these efforts forward. Considering Microsoft’s open interest in developing an Xbox handheld, it seems likely that Sony is determined not to lag in the next gen, potentially the PS6 era.
